An Unfortunate Hero.
lChicago Herald. I

The story of John Vorbauk, who on
his child, is an unusually sad Que. He
was brIcklayer 10y trade, but bad earned
nothing for the support of his family
since last Fall, on account of sickness and
the recent brlckIayers' strike, and his
wife aud child are now left in the most
destitute OF circumstances being ulthout
the means to provide even the necessares
Of life. On Saturday afternoon Vorbauk
was playing with his little boy, IL months
old, in front of his home at 33S North
Sangsmmon street. which Immediately
adioins the Northwestern railroad, when
he carelessly allowed the little fellow to
join some other oh ildren at play among
the tracks. An engine which was back
ing down slowly was entirely unnoticed
by the father until, reused by the screams
of the children, he looked up just in time
to see the locomotive bearing down upon
his boy. With ore bound he had the
child 10 his arms, and, the engine strik-
ing him at the same time, he threw the
babe clear off the tracks, and was himself
dragged about fifty feet before the engine
could be stopped. When ne was picked
up it was found that he had sustained
fatal injuries about the head, from which
he died Sunday afternoon. Vorbauk's
body now lies on a rude bier in the howell
formerly his home, unattended by any
save his poor wife, who is almost crszed
by grief. and can hardly realize her most
forlorn condition as yet. The man. who
was Pole, seems to have been particu-
larly unfortunate since his arrival in
America, and, with little knowledge Of
the language and customs of his adopted
country, has had hard struggle to keep
his family from want. Vorbauk's neigh
bors all declare that he was a temperate,
hard working man. Although abjectly
poor, he was man of considerable under.
standing. If not of education.
